SoulFood Recipes for Peace

Rob Brezsny reports
In 2004, San Rafael hosted a World Conference of Soul-Making
resulting in three schools for best PeaceMaking practices,
to which I will add one
more democratically inclusive,
less autonomously exclusive.

“The Ruminators
theorized that humans are born without [divine] souls
and can create them only through arduous,
disciplined rebellion against all [trauma-informed] belief systems.

The Resonators
agreed that soul [peace] isn’t innate,
but insisted that soul-making is by no means difficult
…gathering good [health-humor] stories is effective [necessary]
and not at all hard [resiliently sufficient].

The Revelators
said every [individual] person is born with a [peace-full monotheistic] soul
in seed form,
and need only discover the [organic] ‘blueprint’
of that [individual] seed
in order to attract the [anthropocentric] experiences
necessary to draw out its [integrity’s] potential.”

Regenerators
win/win hypothetically agree with all of the above,
born with a potential integrating peace seed,
we struggle with systemic traumas
win v lose dualistic pathological dramas
painfully dissociative
devolutionary ruminations
yet also
celebrate our greatest Gaian Synergy Story
of inter-religiously ecological
cooperative revolutionary culminations
resonantly anticipating
health-climaxing wealth
of panentheistic pronoia.

Re-ligiously con-scientious peace-making
within universally engaged
neurosystemic unitarian mindbody
and
compassionately pleased
ecosystemic bodymind

Re-membering roundly resonant Gaia’s
mystical polyamorous vulnerability
historical pronoia transparency
anticipating interdependent EarthTribe’s
soul-communing peace communications.

Once again, adding a culminating four-fractal fold
to three interdependent dimensions
closes a four-season healthy
regeneratively wealthy
peace-development story

Inviting our polyculturally expectant revisit
for yet more win/win synergetic soul food

Re-ligiously feeding spiritual Resonator minds of
con-scientiously breeding natural Revelator bodies for
re-viving more sacredly co-passionate Ruminators singing
organically co-pleasuring ReGenerator Muses
dancing EarthPeace soul.

Powers of Enlightenment

I’ve noticed our Republic’s
IrReligious RightWing Tree of Life v Death
reacts to root-systemic problems
as if oak strong branches
lifted to majestic worshiping heights
of crowning supremacy
need not be concerned
with watering
and feeding democratic roots
of nutrition
nursing organic trust
and nurturing EarthMother empowerment.

Such behavior feels less organically intelligent
than a sacred Tree of MotherEarth

More like a gang
of Bully Putin Pulpits
and capital addicted TrumPublican Puppets
with upset expansive stomachs,
boundlessly hungry eyes
and private paranoid parts,
and irritatingly irreligious deaf ears

Trying to feed
from entitled top,
trickling down to lowly
leftover
humiliated bottoms,
what we must primally breed
and seed
from deep down
communing democratic trust inside

Roots musing down
and communicating in
to feed organic communion up
and sacred community out

Conserving crown to root neurological tree-systems
resonantly nurturing
harmoniously liberacious crowns
both/and
win/win
organic/sacred
resiliently conservational root systems
interdependently
inter-religiously
empowering/enlightening communion.

Not quite so angry
with enfeebled branched-out leaders
and not mad
with anemically sad internal conspiracies
and bad dis-investment habits
rather than glad co-investment skills

for resolving which top bully,
devouring all challenger bullies,
will next be crowned King
of trauma-riddled TrumPublican triumph

Trumped-up singing:
It’s my party
and you’ll cry
when I want you to.

Meanwhile
democratic grassroot systemic wisdom
burns and blows
drowns and starves

Degenerating patriarchal migraines
and not regenerating grains
of deep-rooted integrity

to feel multicultural health
trust
truth
beauty
pleasure
wisdom
compassion
loving kindness
pronoia peace

courageous polycultural curiosity
about interweaving wisdom
of inter-religious root systems.

Liberating resonant crowns
and conserving resilient roots,
bipartisan integrity of a wealthy
healthy
EarthMothered Tree.

Or so it seems to me
noticing our disunited Republic’s
troubled Tree of CrownHeavy Life
reacting against healthy multicultural democracy

Deaf
to wilderness voices of dying forests
coral reefs
oceans
topsoil
shrinking polar caps
glaciers
rivers

EarthMother’s unenlightened crown of thorns
and disempowering trunk of sorrows,
man-privileged monotheistic
irreligiously and monoculturally wrong
ecocidally desecrating
anthropocentric maladaptive root-trauma

cannot resiliently support
TrumPublican crown drama.

Bad Humors Destroy Feelers

Good Humors Create Healers

Electing and selecting humorless weaponed officials
to legislate and administer laws
empowering challenged and challenging
unarmed natures,
is like expecting a rabid rattlesnake
to advocate with and for patience,
understanding through calming and merciful listening,
to apply active love’s curiously empathic trust,
which no just law, or logical practice thereof, could prohibit.

The truth of complex situations,
so necessary to uncover for wise application of our ethical codes
for economic and political behaviors,
is best accessed by vulner-ability
to co-empathic trust,
active listening,
Basic Win/Win Anticipation,
as is intelligent paradoxical humor.

Loss of humor’s appositional equanimity
is an ominous spiritual v natural sign
Yet another rabidly riled-up,
not yet cooled-down, rattlesnake
with too much “healthiest defense
is a massively wealthy offense”
post-traumatic neurosystemic intelligence.

If you are feeling like delivering toxic venom,
rather than inviting kindness in return,
then probably best and brightest
to stay home
and curl up on a warm rock.

Hard-hearted victimization intent
to neglect and abuse,
marginalize and criminalize, others
is not softened or redeemed
by anything less or more than orthopraxis of loving kindness
with a good-humored smile, as possible,
without someone thinking you are up to something devious.

Pronoia’s comedy is most effective therapeutic drama
when transparently co-responding
to the co-empathic paradox
of paranoia’s tragically triggered trauma.

Those who expect citizens to behave civilly,
best mentor what they would optimally hope to see
on our FlashMob singing streets
and not MassMurder flinging roads
and life’s Competing Business As Usual highways
and bad rumored conspiracy byways.

Front-line customer service to those suspected,
or even known,
to struggle with bad-sad-mad humored tendencies,
cannot be optimally effective
by treating them to further misdemeanors of humorless
unglad
cold-blooded
unsym-pathetic
systemic winner v loser
0-sum paranoid rabidity.

Are you in our shared health-humored busyness?
or in our too much anger/fear pathological business,
or, paradoxically, both?

If both,
which direction seems to bring you,
and the rest of us,
economically wealthier ecological,
and healthier political,
resilient relationship outcomes?

I would love to anticipate more good humored officials
(and clergy)
for multiculturally transformative public health
and become less anxious
about officious nests
of reformative rattlesnakes
threatening venomous rabidity
of bad-sad-mad humored pathology.

Choosing Peace

A radiant monotheistic SunGod

yintegrally compassionate
pleasured polytheism.

Testosterone glowing
linear erections
are the Male antithesis
of estrogen flowing
round anticipations
joying
enjoying
enjoining FeMale prothesis.

A transcendently nominative FatherSun

naturally rejoiced thesis.

A LeftHemisphere verbally dominant
monotheistic bipolarity
transcendently divides
either Divine or Human
Mind or Body
Sage or Muse
Yang or Yin
+1 or -0 double-binaries

Primal Voices and Choices

Paranoia feeds on dark roots.
In full bloom, everything and everyone that happens against me
happens for a sinister conspiratorial reason.
This is my felt conjecture,
to which I respond
by struggling against trust
in Other’s monopolistic monocultural Wins,
so I might survive to tolerate
yet another scrappy day of paranoia.

Pronoia feeds on everything and everyone
not out to get me
but more in to let me
happen for a blessed season
with which I am invested to resonate,
including my fair share of struggling with,
but not against,
my WinLose enculturation
so we might thrive to mutually WinWin
yet another multiculturing
polypathic
Beloved Community Way.

This is our primal ecopolitical choice,
Both-And over Either-Or,
made each moment in time’s evolving articulation
deep learning incarnation
of days and nights
within this not-paranoia and not-pronoia
in-between identity,
risk with opportunity
conjectural life.

Conservative LeftBrain Either-Or
sees a bipolar world
of either I am saved
or demonic,
either I am part of the solution
or part of the problem,
either I am True
or I am False,
only pretending to be True
to get you to become False.

Liberating Elder RightBrain Both-And
fluid feelings
multi-sensually engage in a dipolar EarthTribe
in which I experience pronoia on healthy days
and paranoia on more challenging days,
I am an integral and authentic organic part
of EarthTribe’s living win/win resolution
and part of an irreligious ecocidal global problem,

I sometimes feel unconditional warm regard
with peak win/win opportunities to Trust
and usually also feel win/lose risks of MisTrust
and occasionally paranoid panic
with deep dissociative valleys
of shadows
of death,
lose/lose despairing DisTrust.

But, even should this become bipartisan political science,
bicameral neuropsychology,
bilaterally conjectured co-intelligence,
let us not delude ourselves into a hypnotic state of academic neutrality,
ambivalently pretending either choice is equally healthy,
when ecocidal outcomes are so clearly etched in patriarchal bones
of troubling dissociative history.

Love’s mutual promise clearly points toward evolutions
embracing elegant polyculturally resonant
healthy democratic systems furthering win/win wealth,
while paranoid fundamentalist God v Man terror
degenerates toward further traumatic pathology,
afraid of our own anthro-suprema-cast
dark blaming mind v shameful body

Conjecturing fundamentally irreligious
punishing
paranoid shadows.

Love’s Vulnerable Pedestrian

Taoists recognize
all outside exposed inside egos
feel watched
when walking through
a new or, some stressed times,
even a long familiar
housed human eco-habitat

But some of us feel marginal,
suspected,
anxious about being judged
and shamed
and blamed
for assumed insufficiencies
at aggressively playing monoculturing win/lose
Straight
WesternWhite
Patriarchal
eco-political games

And sometimes we feel anticipation,
privileged multicultural excitement
and active hope

That the multigenerational family
moving in next door
will have kids our win/win needy age

Still health/wealth co-empathic
feeling ego/ecosystemic healing memories

Of past
RedYang/GreenYintegrity walking
waking small revolutionary
repurposing
transportive
transcendent communion experiences

ReStorying Earth’s polyculturing just Ways,
PolyPathic Means,
CoMediations of health-felt cooperative experience

In Ego/Eco-Pedestrian NonZero Zones
of active co-mediation,
win/win strategic and healing game designers
bilaterally co-passioned,
walking along 1/0 binomial
double-binary
boundaries

Anticipating ego/eco-systemic
compassionately progressing
communions.

Climates of Ecstasy

Any difference between feeling horrified, on one hand,
and disenchanted thoughts, on the other,
seem connected to punishing error and folly in others
unlike our self-righteous ego identities
trained to settle for a Win/Lose anti-communal
anti-trusting world.

Such disparities are even less wise when paranoid
and manic,
a difference in degree
between tragically toxic and merely Win/Lose business as usual,
between outside projection and inside rejection
on our shared global potential enchantment stage.

Then, too,
perhaps any disappointing difference between climatic ecstasy
and everyday enchantments,
in-between wu-wei,
still kindly love our best
and healthiest
and most beautiful,
sensual,
graceful local cooperative presence.

Each ecstatic day may bring some of both
cooperative enchantment
and Left v Right disenchanting competitions
to avoid horror and terror out there,
without doubt,
but also everyday disenchantments
of a complex, sometimes chaotic, domestic darkness.

Therapeutic Revolutions

You mentioned you work with a therapist.

Has she encouraged you to incorporate centering exercises
and holistic thinking and feeling experiences
healing interior and exterior nondualistic climate events
in your everyday thinking/feeling habitual non-violent practice?

Has she encouraged you to disclose what you can realistically pray for
while making and selling automatic rifles?
And living cooperatively with those who choose to profit
in this terrorizing way?

You mean those tedious bicameral bilateral practices
like tai chi and yoga,
drumming while singing
and whistling
and laughing
and tweeting
or something wild like that?

I suppose I might,
although none of those are in my own daily repertoire
against depression
and climate crisis anxiety,
and an already compromised critical immune system.

Have you tried any of these holistic things
your therapist has suggested,
or not,
perhaps in passing
or passing by,
as alternative supplements to your talk therapy?
Has she suggested walking on the beach
and through forests,
and over and back down mountain trails,
tracking rivers flowing up and down,
circling around lakes rising and falling,
down competitive MainStreets
and up more cooperatively communalized by-streets
with under-capitalized
organic communioned
community eco-school gardens?

I don’t recall anything quite so athletic
or communal
or…
I don’t know…
something about a PolyCultural DNA EcoCommons?

With your ADHD,
your high YHWH revenge-climate crisis anxiety,
your non-violent cooperative feminist
reverse-hierarchical solidarity philosophy,

And with your chronic depression,
disassociating repression,
ecopolitical suppression,
invited by LeftBrain dominant paranoid
narcissistic
self-justifying Yang v Yin concerns,
your mindbody might prefer bipedal
as well as bicameral
centering exercises
you can do every enchanting day
whether walking through a forest,
with or without peer therapists being-doing
walking non-violently while talking
as you walk from one room to the other
and up and down ancient stairs to nowhere/everywhere
inside your own home
and other divinely inspired green-potential sanctuaries.

I don’t think I can talk green and meditate ultra-nonviolet
simultaneously
coincidentally
even in a sanctuary.

It’s more like non-violent walking and talking
and ultra-nonviolet medicating
at the same time,
like thinking with your LeftBrain and right-dominant foot
while feeling-listening with your Right CooperativeBrain
and left-prominent foot
reverse backward through time’s history,
then upstream forward
into EarthTribe’s healthier green-shared future Commons.

I’m not sure I even trust that such a risk-management practice
would be a loyal
and patriotic
and faithful thing to do
and think
and/or feel.

Too startling,
revolutionary,
to just deductively think about 2020 polypathic vision,

Too dissonant against BusinessAsUsual
LeftBrain competitions between think dominating felt
RightBrain response to LeftBrain oppressive
non-organic
mechanistic system thinking
disassociating from RightBrain feels discerning harmonies of pace
and cooperative/dissonant hue,
and climate cry
and spiral walking through and by
doing being
saying seeing.

Yet if your LeftBrain does choose to reconsider,
all thoughts include implicit healing feelings
as all feelings, resonant or dissonant and in-between,
re-associate with LeftBrain conservational
conversational deductive/inductive balance
of natural/spiritual healthy thoughts with feelings,

While right foot follows left
following right
through each day’s inside and outside
ego- and eco-therapeutic journey
through life and death
between cooperative natural breath
and communal spiritual death, release reverse

Right foot forward into life
Left foot backward
into RightBrain’s sacred regenerate passage of timeless
journeying back through all past incarnate imaged lives

Patriarchal Right forward
and matriarchal Left reverse-hierarchical Time
co-governing pace through slowing our RightBrainBody
green organic herstory
integrative
synergetic
communal
negentropic timeless
run-on empty sentences
composed of re-associative double-binding phrases
like the sound of one foot not not walking

Perhaps I could feel called
to walk some small part
of this bipedal bicameral health journey.

But, how do you know when it is time to stop
and get on with your competitive egocentric day?

I’m not LeftBrain sure how I know
when to stop walking this pilgrimage
into cooperative WinWin.
I wake up each morning
more happily determined
to walk and talk in bicameral solidarity
until we have all found this healthy being Right
is doing Left journey
we were good-faith organically born to look for
and cooperatively expect
communally respect
polypathically request
of each EarthTribe
sacred eco-schooling
deep learning
OtherEmpathy

As therapeutically taught
by MotherEarth EcoRevolution School.
